Originally published in 1975, Fenwomen was the first non-fiction book published by Virago. A vivid social and oral history of an isolated village in the Cambridgeshire Fens, it provides a unique portrait, spanning nearly 100 years, via the previously unheard voices of the women who lived there, of a community where there were virtually no professional or middle-class people, where intermarriage was common and a single family owned all the village land. Fenwomen was in a tradition stretching through Ronald Blythe (Akenfield) and 20 years further back to the true pioneer of English oral history, George Ewart Evans, with his publication Ask the Fellows Who Cut the Hay (1956). In an extended new introduction to this Full Circle edition, Mary Chamberlain recalls her original intent to write a 'feminist Akenfield', a 'history from the bottom up not of great country houses and the chatelaines who ran them but of women as labourers and labourers' wives'. She describes, too, how she revisited the village and talked to some of the original women about how their lives had changed over 35 years.

Motherhood is the most life-changing journey a woman will take and yet it passes by her at lightspeed. If she absorbs the definitions of motherhood presented to her by the culture at large without the opportunity to reflect and center herself in this fleeting moment, a mother can easily lose her way, and, even, herself. And so many do.The Full-Circle Journal gives her the chance to seize that moment and build for herself an understanding of how she is changing, what she needs, and how she wants motherhood to unfold for her. It is here to serve as a mentor, memoir, and friend who will help her see, understand, shape and remember what is happening to her. There are an abundance of books on how to raise a child. There are also books or blogs on how to process motherhood that are mostly memoir or focused on dishing out advice. Cate didn't find anything hands-on to help her through the transition every day, something that was cheaper, easier and more accessible than weekly therapy sessions. Something that actually provided her with release and replenishment at the same time that it made her brave new world seem conquerable and more enjoyable. So, she created it. She called on her usual recruits: journaling, meditation, self-help psychology, and therapy, and built a personal, customizable roadmap through the wilderness. Every day for six months, moms will have the chance to reflect, write, gain inspiration from thought leaders, and engage in activities designed to help her make the most of this transition. It offers a space and structure and guidance for moms to contemplate and conceptualize their stories through daily writing and activity prompts combined with the inspiration and wisdom of authors, poets, and leaders in self-care. Cate created a platform to, first, find her voice and, then, speak her truth in order to become better friends with herself. Now she wants to share it.
